On The Run Analysis

What is the right way of approaching the situation of the unfair acts of the Justice system? The book “On the Run” portrays a vivid story about a few families that live in a low social class neighborhood. The author talks about her studies, and how she got from point A to point B. She explained to us her studies that she has done before she acted on this “experiment”. She tells to us her research, and the stigma attached to these people who lives in this neighborhood. She got to stay with these people for an “x” amount of years and got insanely close to their families, and especially the women in that neighborhood.
